BENTONVILLE (dpa-AFX) - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission or CPSC
has announced recalls including Walmart's electric mini choppers, children's
pajamas, child bike seats, bed rails, as well as baby nests and crib bumpers
citing various reasons.

Walmart's Mainstays electric mini choppers were called back due to laceration
hazard, and Thule's RideAlong rear-mounted child bike seats were recalled due to
chemical ingestion hazard.

Further, Essential Medical Supply reannounced its recall of adult portable bed
rails due to entrapment and asphyxia hazards after two additional deaths were
reported after 2021 recall.

The recall also includes Lovey & Grink's children's pajamas due to burn hazard,
and C2 Crank Cocking Aids for Excalibur Crossbows for injury and laceration
hazards.

In addition, Zazaba International called back Grao de Gente baby nests and crib
bumpers due to suffocation risk.

In most of the recalls, consumers are urged to immediately stop using the
recalled product, and contact the respective firm for either a free repair,
replacement or refund, depending on each product.

Walmart Electric Mini Choppers

Walmart's recall includes about 51,750 units of Mainstays Electric Mini Choppers
with model number MS14100094536S1 sold exclusively at Walmart. The choppers are
rechargeable and cordless, and have a green lid, white body, and clear plastic
bowl.

The product, manufactured in China, were sold exclusively at Walmart stores
nationwide and online at Walmart.com from August 2022 through October 2023 for
between $10 and $15.

According to the agency, the chopper's blade can operate unexpectedly during
assembly or when not enclosed in the container, posing a laceration hazard to
consumers.

The recall was initiated after the company received five reports of lacerations,
two of which required medical attention, including stitches. Injuries occurred
during assembly of the product or during cleaning/handling of the product.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled choppers, and contact
Walmart to receive a full refund.

Thule Child Bike Seats

Seymour, Connecticut-based Thule called back RideAlong rear-mounted Child Bike
Seat that fits most bicycle frames. About 8,640 units of RideAlong rear-mounted
Child Bike Seats were sold in the United States and about 3,880 units in Canada.

It was sold in gray with a black 3-point harness padding. Only model number
100107 and date codes 21/3-23/10 (March 2021 to October 2023) are included in
the recall.

They were manufactured in Poland and sold at REI and baby stores nationwide and
online at Amazon.com and Thule.com from May 2017 through October 2023 for about
$300.

The harness padding of Thule RideAlong bike seats can contain flame-retardant
DecaBDE in excess of regulatory limits, posing a chemical hazard. DecaBDE can be
toxic if it is ingested or comes into contact with skin or eyes.

However, there were no reports of incidents or injuries related to the recalled
product to date.

Consumers can contact Thule Group to register for free replacement harness
padding.

Endurance Hand Bed Rails

Orlando, Florida -based Essential Medical Supply Inc. has reannounced the recall
of four models of Endurance Hand Bed Rails.

The recall involves the Hand Bed Rail (model P1410), Hand Bed Rail with Pouch
(model P1410-P), Hand Bed Rail with Floor Support (model P1411), and Hand Bed
Rail with Floor Support with Pouch (model P1411-P).

Essential Medical Supply sold about 272,000 units of the bed rails at medical
supply stores nationwide and online at www.amazon.com and www.walmart.com. The
bed rails were sold from October 2006 through December 2021 for between $36 and
$98.

When attached to an adult's bed, users can become entrapped within the bed rail
or between the rail and the side of the mattress. This could result in a serious
entrapment hazard and risk of death by asphyxiation.

The products were originally recalled in December 2021 following the entrapment
death of an 86-year-old man in California. Since that recall was announced, two
additional entrapment deaths have been reported in Connecticut, and in
California.

Consumers are asked to stop using the recalled bed rails immediately and to
check their homes and the homes and assisted living facilities for the recalled
bed rails.

Lovey & Grink Children's Pajamas

Lovey & Grink called back about 23,720 units of Children's Two-Piece Pajamas and
Lounge Dresses. The recall involves four types of children's sleepwear garments.
They were manufactured in Indonesia and sold from September 2022 through January
2024 for between $38 and $44.

The recalled children's pajamas violate the flammability regulations for
children's sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injuries to children. However, the
company has not received any reports of incidents or injuries so far.

Consumers sare urged to contact Lovey & Grink for a full refund.

C2 Crank Cocking Aids

Excalibur Crossbow US LLC has recalled C2 Crank sold as a cocking aid for
crossbows. About 15,000 units were sold in the U.S. and about 3,920 units in
Canada.

The C2 Crank in black has two plastic cocking hooks attached to the string of
the C2 Crank. The part number 2199 and the UPC number 626192021991 are located
on the packaging.

They were manufactured in Canada and sold at Bass Pro Shops, Cabela's, and other
stores nationwide and online at excaliburcrossbow.com, ebay.com and amazon.com
from January 2008 through December 2021 for about $190.

According to the agency, the C2 Crank's cocking hooks can break during use,
causing flying plastic hook projectiles, posing impact injury and laceration
hazards to the user and bystanders.

The recall was initiated after Excalibur received 538 reports of the C2 Crank
cocking aid hooks breaking during use, resulting in plastic projectiles flying
and hitting consumers. This included one injury where a consumer reportedly
suffered a permanent eye injury.

Consumers are asked to contact Excalibur Crossbow to receive instructions on
receiving free replacement rope and hooks.

Zazaba's Baby Nests, Crib Bumpers

Dania Beach, Florida -based Zazaba International Inc. called back about 430
units of Grao de Gente Baby Nests and about 795 units of Grao de Gente Crib
Bumper Bedding Sets.

The recalled baby nests violate the safety requirements of CPSC's Safety
Standard for Infant Sleep Products, posing a suffocation risk and fall and
entrapment hazards to infants.

With Crib Bumper Bedding Sets, infants can suffocate if they roll or move on the
crib bumper in a position that obstructs breathing. Padded crib bumpers are
banned under the Safe Sleep for Babies Act of 2021.

So far, no reports of incidents or injuries were received by the company.

All the products were manufactured in Brazil and sold online at Zazaba.com from
March 2023 through August 2023. Baby Nests were sold for between $9 and $110,
and Crib Bumper Bedding Sets were sold for between $24 and $220.
